Another great book in the series adventurous and very intense at times. A real page turner and will keep you reading to the end.

Taking place after Arianna was able to break the curse over the land that King Drevan had started, though King Drevan was not completely defeated, this book begins not long after book 1 ended. Chrysalis, daughter of Egris, and Chass, best friend of Arianna, are the protagonists. This book begins with the two protagonists getting married. While the two are traveling by carriage after the wedding, they were attacked by bounty hunters and Chass was taken. Suddenly, rather than being able to celebrate her new marriage, Chrysalis must now track those same bounty hunters in order to find and free Chass. Though, what begins as a simple tracking mission soon becomes much more complicated. Will Chrysalis be able to find and free Chas or will they both fall to those who support King Drevan?
This book was just as good as the first one was. With the first one ending with the breaking of the curse, there are many books or series that would have ended there. I like that this was not the case with this story and that we are able to see what is happening afterward as the resistance to King Drevan continues to grow. I also really liked that this book presents the story through the eyes of different characters. While Arianna was certainly central to the breaking of the curse, so much happened to her that she is still dealing with the fallout of those issues when this book begins. Since Chass and Chrysalis were both characters in the first book, they are known to the readers already, though we certainly learn much more about them through the events and actions of this book unfold.
The same narrator, Shannon Hobby, also narrated this book, and she did a wonderful job with this one, too. Whether you choose to read or listen to this book, I think you will be happy.
Based on the title alone, I expect that the next book will also have Chass as the protagonist, which means Chrysalis will also likely appear. I look forward to reading/listening to that book, too.
